Madhya Pradesh government is continuing State Scholarship for Class 6th to 10th for Denotified, Nomadic and Semi-Nomadic students, with yearly support from ₹200 to ₹1,200 for school students studying from Class 6 to Class 10.
As of 03 August 2026, no fresh public revision to the scholarship amount or main eligibility rules was found in the public sources checked for this scheme. Samarth Portal still shows the same class-wise rates and the same online application path for students of these communities.
State Scholarship for Class 6th to 10th in Madhya Pradesh
This scholarship is meant for students from Denotified, Nomadic and Semi-Nomadic communities in Madhya Pradesh. Support is paid for 10 months of the academic year, and the scheme details are still available on the state Samarth Portal.
Public scheme details also show that students can remain eligible even if they have failed one academic year. Students moving within the same rate group, like Class 6 to 8 or Class 9 to 10, do not need a fresh renewal application for every class under the same band.
Current public scheme pages do not show any new 2026 increase in the scholarship amount. That means the older amount slab is still the latest visible update at the time of this review.

Application is handled through Samarth Portal. The public pages checked during this review still point students to the same online registration and scheme-detail path.
STEP 1 - Open the Samarth student portal and complete registration if the student account has not been created yet. Keep the mobile number and basic student details ready because the portal may ask for verification during sign-up.
